Maybe I am missing something, but I haven't been able to find a good comparison of rolling resistance for tires... does anyone do this?
(actually, it's really hard to find any decent current tire comparisons online - any suggestions would be appreciated, especially comparisons of moderately high performance summer + high performance all season)
I need to make a final decision on summer tires for the 9-5... Seems Nokian summers are completely unavailable... I'm leaning towards the Michelin Pilot Sport AS+, but I've read numerous reports of significant fuel economy hits (whereas the Nokians are LRR + performance)... if possible, I'd be interested to see if someone has measured rolling resistance quantitatively for the various brands + see just how good or bad the Pilot Sport AS really is (before purchase)... individual user experiences are great, but uncontrolled: variations in tire pressure etc could affect things...
